Let’s say that you are viewing Google Maps and you found something interesting, and you need the Coordinates for some reason, for example, to continue viewing it in Google Earth or to program your GPS Software or any other software. So, what you can do is.. either start all over again until you find that place, or you can use this quick hack and extract the coordinates from Google Maps.

All you have to do is write the following piece of Javascript code in your browser’s Address Bar:

javascript:void(prompt(”Coordinates”,gApplication.getMap().getCenter()));

Then you can just copy and paste those coordinates (remove the brackets) into Google Earth, GPS Software or in any other software.
